LB wants to tour solo but I think the FM tour would be finalized first. Once again not sure what's going on with the FM tour.

I doubt the FM would start before August.
There is some kind of issue going on. Not sure what the issue is but once again this is Fleetwood Mac and it's always "complicated"

Wow - to read this now in retrospect.

If he tours, I wonder what he will say when the inevitable FM questions pop up.

I think he won't ever talk about FM again.

He will need to rise above this treason.

My concern is: Lindsey financed his solo career with his Big Machine money. Could leaving Mac impact the number and quality of records and tours?

Likely will lead to another 1 man show with heavily recorded backing tracks.

After all he was trying to use FM to finance a large chunk of the traveling expenses this tour. If they pay for Neil et all to travel and hotel 1/2 the days in the tour itd be cheaper.

Thats the next question, what shape will the tour take? Will Neale and Brett be involved?

Whatever shape it takes, I am very much looking forward to it. I agree with an earlier poster, capitalize on the moment---release something on iTunes. I can't imagine the band is terribly psyched with all the negative press they are getting. Would love to see Lindsey reap the benefits of it.

1000 times yes to this. it's frustrating.

regarding the solo touring band, so hard to tell what will be going on with them. frankly, i would never begrudge those guys whatever they decide or need to do. they gotta eat and pay mortgages. they are working musicians.

At the present, Lindsey's band is Lindsey and Christine's band. Neale, Lindsey's collaborator, will continue to work with Lindsey. Brett could go either way. If he goes with Lindsey, Christine would need a backup keyboardist. Would Benmont Tench be available despite being a new father?

if Brett ends up going with Lindsey, i can bet that Benmont will replace him!

it will certainly be interesting to watch all this unfold.
